Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Jeremiah 13:27

_ _ neighings — (Jeremiah 5:8), image from the lust of horses; the lust after idols degrades to the level of the brute.

_ _ hills — where, as being nearer heaven, sacrifices were thought most acceptable to the gods.

_ _ wilt thou not ... ? when — literally, “thou wilt not be made clean after how long a time yet.” (So Jeremiah 13:23). Jeremiah denies the moral possibility of one so long hardened in sin becoming soon cleansed. But see Jeremiah 32:17; Luke 18:27.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Jeremiah 13:22-27.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Jeremiah 13:27

Thy whoredom — Thy idolatries.
